In this two-part program, award-winning clay artist Mitch Lyons shares with you some of the unuque handbuilding techniques he has developed over the past four decades. In the first second, he shows how to apply various textures, colored clays, and colored slips using his "Broomstick" method for making ceramic forms without a seam. The second section demonstrates "Handbuilding on the Wheel".
Love your creative ideas!!

good to someone else using a kick wheel. I started throwing about 4 years ago @ a community college and was the only person to use the kick wheel they had. I know no one personally to use the kick wheel for throwing. They are offer much more control than electric. Great video btw.

I really like the techniques you have demonstrated... please show more what is the difference between colored clay or musing some slip thru the clay?
Thank You

I had never seen this technique. I really like it. How do you color the slips?

What exactly is the pastel you are referring to? It looks like a chalk.

I like this. Where do you get the colored slip and the newsprint?
